Okay, so here's a little story I'm not proud of telling, but I want to share my thoughts anyway.

My BF also used to be chubby, until he met his super hot spanish (now ex) girlfriend and decided to become fit for her. Note: It's not my assumption, he really decided to go on a strict diet and hit the gym for her, because he felt his looks are not good enough -he admitted it when we had a conversation once about healthy eating. Well, he made it, he transformed his body from the average chubby gamer guy to the ripped and fit gym guy. It sure was hard, as many who have been through this can relate to the struggle, but I have to admit he's a VERY disciplined person with strong will and achieved it an a very short time.
Anyways, to keep the story short, today I asked him whether he's into hitting the gym again with me (he hasn't been there for almost a year now) and his answer was something like "meh, I have long lost this burning desire about working out, I doubt if I'll ever go again".
Well...I don't wanna be the paranoid here, and of course I respect his choice, but.. I don't think he gives a sh*t about his looks now that he's being with me. Just because I happen to be average with an imperfect body and not extremely hot, he doesn't need to try this hard anymore. I guess I am not challenging him as his previous sexy GF to maintain his appearance.
I like him the way he is, I don't mind if he works out or not.. it's the ignorance that hurts me, and the feeling I get that I am inferior.
Not to mention the supposed-to-be-funny comments I get every now and then about my weight - he definitely wants me to slim down and he shows it in every possible way.
As it seems,to him it's fair not to try at all, but expect from me to change. Seriously?

So I stumbled upon this "dietdoctor" website, which is mostly about Keto, low carb dieting etc.
I never tried a low carb diet since I always found it difficult and very time consuming. I mean, as an overweight student with a very limited income, it's already hard to keep up with a healthy eating / exercising regimen, not to mention the money, cooking and the time required to achieve that.
What I read in the dietdoctor and got my attention though, is the following tip : "Women should avoid fruits".
The article was stating that fruits contain lots of sugar (even if it's fructose, no big difference - still a carb, still "bad" for your weight loss goals) so if you're going low carb, you shouldn't consume regularly fruits, you can only enjoy them as a special treat. Same goes with dairy products which contain lactose (still a form of sugar).

Aaand this is where I got confused.

The main [eternal] reason for screwing up my diet is sweet cravings and snacking. I don't care about eating 2 steaks, pizza, fries or whatever, but I simply can't stay away from sweets. So in order to satisfy my sweet tooth, I eat lots of fruits(min. 3-4 pieces per day) and dairy products (1 portion of low fat milk and 1 of yoghurt per day).
Also, I often notice that I'm exceeding my daily carb intake and now I'm really concerned whether my diet is wrong or not.

Help?!?
